United States v. Donald McLean
Opinion
Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Donald Lee McLean raises arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. Brown, 920 F.2d 1212, 1216-17 (5th Cir. 1991), abrogated on other grounds by United States v. Candia, 454 F.3d 468, 472-73 (5th Cir. 2006), which held *473 that a district court has the discretion under 18 U.S.C. § 3584 to order a federal sentence to run consecutively to a yet-to-be-imposed state sentence. See Setser v. United States, — U.S. —, 132 S.Ct. 1463, 1466-73, 182 L.Ed.2d 455 (2012). The Government’s motion for summary af-firmance is GRANTED, the Government’s alternative motion for an extension of time to file a brief is DENIED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
